There was a time when quick microwaved
meals were all the rage. They saved time, were tasty to eat and even easy on
the pocket. However, such meals were chemically processed, had close to no
nutritional value and were not fresh. This led to the downfall of fast foods and rise of healthy
eating. Now, people want to know what is in their food. Is it natural? Are the
ingredients sustainable? Free of additives and preservatives? Health-conscious
people are choosing simple and wholesome ingredients that are rapidly changing
the way we shop, cook and eat our meals.

| Gourmet Foods |
Today, people take their food very
seriously – and want to know where their food has come from and what it took to
get that food to the table. This trend has provided a boost to the gourmet food
industry. The term ‘gourmet food’ refers to food and drink that takes extra
care to make or acquire. Such type of food is often found or made only in
certain locations. The ingredients used may be exotic and difficult to find in
regular stores.
Gourmet ingredients tend to blend
herbs and spices in an interesting manner or add a hint of flavour to foods
that are usually not flavoured. For example, date balsamic vinegar, lemon olive
oil, and date mustard are exclusive takes on otherwise simple ingredients. Owing
to their rarity, such ingredients retail for slightly higher prices than their
more common counterparts. The nutritional value and taste acquired is far
superior when you incorporate gourmet ingredients in your dishes.
With such treasured cooking elements,
healthy food doesn't have to be bland. Moreover, delicious dishes don't have to
include tons of calories or refined sugar. You can opt for honey instead. Honey
has been linked to quite impressive health benefits. Research has found that natural
honey may help reduce risk factors for heart disease, improve wound healing and
even treat coughs. This is why we highly recommend Bateel’s All-Natural Honey. Every jar of honey by
Bateel is 100% organic and embraces the flavours of the blossom it has been
gathered from. In order to incorporate diversity and add a pinch of uniqueness
into their offerings, Bateel Honey comes in aromatic flavours of acacia,
linden, verbena and lemon. Try it side by side with what you have in your
kitchen and the difference will blow you away!
Are you still curious if gourmet
foods are worth the money? Just add the magic of a ‘gourmet’ ingredient to your
food or drink and see your dish transform into something more sophisticated, healthy,
and desirable.
